I was excited and humbled tonight to receive this special email from Microsoft:
Dear Gil Raviv,

(Update: Added Churn Rates).
The table below shows the churn rate by award category (This table can show you the difficulty to get re-awarded by category). The table also includes the total number of MVPs in June 2018, and how many were not re-awarded. The toughest categories were Office Development, Access, Windows and Devices for IT and Visual Studio and Development Technologies. Note: For simplicity reasons, the calculations are based on MVPs with a single award category.
Looking forward to collaborate with many of you this year – current, new and former MVPs.
Congrats Gil… well deserved!
Thank you Danny

Hi Gil,
I am looking forward for your upcoming example in Power Query of SharePoint sub sites/Groups files imports. Also for cases where we have to lookup value from multiple tables in power Query based on value mentioned in cell. For example :- if week no. is less than 26 than lookup from table1 otherwise table2.
